Andrew Hupert -- Shanghai Marketing and HR Consultant

A management consultant on the ground in Shanghai who truly understands both Western and Chinese business practices is invaluable. Andrew Hupert is one of the few people I know who fills this bill. 

Andrew has spent more than twelve years living and working in China as a finance and management professional.  He came to Asia in 1990 after receiving his MBA in International Finance from New York University's Leonard N. Stern School of Business.   

Andrew has been living in Shanghai for the past four years, where he runs a sales training consultancy business focused on management, marketing and HR in China.  In addition to his consulting business, Andrew also publishes www.DiligenceChina.com to assist companies new to China or planning to start operations there and www.ChinaSolved.com, which focuses on applying international best business practices to existing China-based operations.  Andrew also frequently lectures on these same things for various Shanghai MBA programs.

On top of his extensive knowledge of China business practices, Andrew also has a deep knowledge of China's stock markets (of which he is quite skeptical) and he is a great source of Shanghai information.  I always find meeting with Andrew to be both informative and interesting and I recommend him for marketing and HR help in China.  Andrew can be reached at andrew@bestpracticeschina.com.
